thanks for reminding me that i need to watch it. im looking up movies now

You're welcome, though I must admit I exaggerated and that award actually goes to Whiplash.

>hurt locker came out 9 years ago
not so fast

Aliens looked fucking retarded and the cgi was worse than age of ultron

This movie could have been good

I agree. Cool concept, & skillfully executed. The acting, cinematography, and effects (both sound and visual) were top-notch

>Abbott is death process

not even the best movie of this year. or the month it came out in. good idea, terrible writing and execution

> hard determinism

pure kino

It was ok, but there was a lot to like and dislike both. 6,5/10

DUDE LINGUISTICS LMAO

I actually liked the plot twist.

one of the best examples for the pleb filter

It genuinely surprised me, which is rare.

That's no Coherence.

i watched this and interstellar back to back
man..music and sound effects is what these movies are all about
watching this muted would make it a 6/10 instead of a 9.3/10

>removing a significant part of the movie would make it a worse movie
WHOA, you don't say?!

It's why posting soundless webms is retarded. This board needs sound webms.

This is one easy indicator to find women who have had an abortion. This film triggers the shit out of them.

Movie was average.

I think "Hell or High Water', which was released in the same year was infinitely better. HoHW used a simple trope, a pair robbing banks, to get back at "the man", but it was infinitely more captivating than "Arrival" (which had aliens, time travel, and wtf knows what else).

if this board had sound webms shitposting would go up 300%

Good marketing. But wasn't that great. 2/5 weak story, payoff

Not even the best execution of that narrative purpose.

I never knew i could care so much about a flying foot

>a pair robbing banks, to get back at "the man",
How the hell is that "a similar trope" to Arrival?

this.

>open innocent looking webm
>porn moaning blasts out

this is the movie where a woman did something after knowing with 100% certainty that it was going to fail

completely authentic

Not watching either... 10/10. Garbage endings.

I wouldn't even call it Villeneuves best

I said "simple trope", not similar trope :)

Why the FUCK did you just smile at me?

are you assuming what my expressions mean?!?

Reminds me of this great thing on one of the porn boards where someone posted a porn webm but midway through there was some very realistic knocking. I knew it was coming and it still surprised me. Better than any jump scare.

I know you're shitposting because the film you posted is shit

what a shit decade

It was boring as fuck. Kill yourself OP.

Go back to Letterboxd General.

I honestly fucking hated it. The "twist" was dumb, and the rest of the film was aggressively irritating. Like getting a two hour lecture from a redditor pseud, then he spits directly in your mouth for some reason.

The movie does not even try to be good at those areas in my opinion.

Not even Villeneuve's best movie.

First half of the movie - great.
Second half - extremely disapointing and a let down.

Why did this line become such a huge meme? I don't understand.

If you use the word "reddit" when you are describing something, you have no fucking idea what your talking about

It was good, but the best of the last ten years? Really?
Better than No Country for Old Men? Better than The Hunt? Le Grande Bellezza? The Master? Even other Villeneuve films like Sicario or Enemy are better.

FUCKING COHERENCE.It's not even a good movie but when you think about the concept (they explained everything so even retards understand) and the idea of the self it becomes scary as shit.

It's a pretty good line, especially considering the context of the narrative.

I could have sworn The Hunt was from like the 90s or something.

you are either a complete brainlet or a tasteless STEM dweeb

>the STEM meme
And what's your field, asshole? Being a fucking virgin?

Was a badass film

I think you meant "Biggest disappointment of the last ten years".

That would be Whiplash my dude
Arrival is close though

Pretty much every half-decent show or film in recent memory.
Setting the scene is easy, writing a convincing ending that is not another cliffhanger is hard.

See

This applies to pretty much everything in general. I hate endings. They never satisfy me. I want things to keep going forever and ever, but I know things don't work that way. It is definitely worse in some things than in others though.

How is the ending a cliffhanger?

I believe his point is that it's hard to write a good ending that isn't a cliffhanger ending. Hence why Arrival's ending, which is not a cliffhanger ending, is not a good ending (in his opinion).

Arrival is part of a recent series of movies I'd describe as Dunning-Kruger Sci-Fi. Along with Interstellar and to a somewhat lesser extent The Martian, they perfectly play to the crowd that fancies themselves as (and, to be fair, may truly be) smarter than average audiences but are not as smart as genuinely "smart people." They are movies designed to make the audience feel smart by introducing complicated and heady concepts, and then holding the viewer's hand the entire way through until there is next to nothing to be left up to interpretation.

If you didn't already know the twist in Arrival by the time she was in the milky section of the ship with the aliens AT LEAST, you perfectly fit the audience I am talking about.

There is no reward for being smart while viewing these movies because everything is eventually spelled out in big fridge magnet letters. Any clever idea is made so transparent that even the most simple in the audience will get it. It also removes any reward for rewatching or trying to figure out what you just saw.

Granted, there is a difference between Arrival and Interstellar. I think where Interstellar was pretending to have a brain it actually didn't have, Arrival has a brain that it is refusing to let the audience use.

Completely disappointing movie.

Also
>so that just happened

Whenever I play Raynor in Heroes of the Storm he has this line where after he respawns he says "Well... that just happened." and it always makes me think of this copypasta. I think Tracer has it too.

kys

This stale pasta is so trash, it doesn’t even talk about Villeneuve or a single point about the film, just the overpraising autists.

It's like saying Fight Club is a bad film just because some normies think the film has the meaning of life itself in it.
And the saddest part is that you saved and then copypasted it probably hundred times already thinking that it's saying something "smart".

Feels like there's a boring-ass copypasta for every critically acclaimed movie lately. La La Land has one, Moonlight has one, Logan has one... there's probably more.

Do you happen to have the one for Moonlight? I liked that movie a lot as well. I feel I missed a huge amount of shit posting since I watched it semi recently and not at release or around the time it received the award.

why would an alien suffer from human amnesia? this movie made no sense.

I actually cannot remember seeing one for Moonlight now that I think about it, so I may have been mistaken, sorry. Maybe there is one but nobody's been autistic enough to keep posting it like they have for the other movies so I haven't seen it.

I have, however, recently been working on forcing a positive copypasta about the movie, so here's that in case you're interested.

Doing gods work homie, it really is an amazing film, there was only one part in moonlight that took me out of it and that was the use of this stock sound effect here youtu.be/yVaUq98qWGE?t=57s

Nice to see someone else who likes it so much. It's a shame it's so hard to discuss here because of the "gay blacks" thing. Great scene you linked too, I was so into it I didn't even notice the sound effect.

your mom is succing my dick right now pleb

I just checked and she is asleep.

sci-fi fucking sucks and ALL genre fiction is garbage for idiots

either she had a child she knew would die of aids
or
you cannot change the future, meaning the knowledge the ayylmaos give use has zero utility

Holy shit, you are mad.

Arrival is a good film for finding true autists on Sup Forums.

So much of the film requires empathy and being able to comprehend complex emotions to understand the characters actions. Autists lack the ability to do either of these things so they just sperg out and hate the film.

>aliens looked retarded
yae man they should have been big green ayylmaos and not something an alien might actually look like so I can poost it on reddit like this: ayy lmao ayy lmao ayy lmao xDDDD

While your post is obnoxious as fuck I appreciate that you made it, because I thought it was a breath of fresh air that the aliens looked truly alien and not just boring humanoid aliens.

it's a 6/10 episode of star trek the next generation with the heaviest globalist propaganda i've seen in years.

You like it because they conditioned you to.

It's not even remotely similar to Star Trek and I regret starting to type this post before I finished reading yours and saw you rambled on with some "da joos" Sup Forums-tier bullshit.

The conditioning is strong.

What was the one thing humanity had to do to get the FTL tech? Build individual nations? No? What then?

What the fuck does that have to do with this film?

>nolan 2.0
>Good
Villenueve is a pale imitation of much better directors. full stop. He's just someone who like movies so much he decided to go for it as a director, but he can't actually make anything truly interesting/unique/smart. Literally Nolan 2.0. He's not as bad as Inarritu or McQueen, though.

Because different countries working together is such a bad thing.

"Globalism is bad" is such a dumb meme.

well described, and hence, Nolan 2.0, or perhaps 1.5

Tell me in what way is Villeneuve like Nolan?
Villeneuve is closer to Fincher than to Nolan in terms of the execution.

>why yes, i do live in a rich white neighborhood, how did you know?

In the film, humanity MUST become globalist or they will all die. How could you not see it? are you that fucking blind?

Yeah but what does building faster than light tech have anything to do with the film?

modern international neoliberal economic policies and financial systems are just one form of the potential space of "globalism" i.e. international co-operation on a policy level

proving the existing policy framework is a failure isn't evidence of international co-operation being a failed premise

Meh ... "Moonlight" = "Arrival"

Pretty sure that's what the aliens were offering in exchange for globalizing.

You're now literally making stuff up.
Did you even watch the film or are you just shitposting?

Faster than light travel (or any travel whatsoever) was never mentioned or implied in the film.

It was something that could only be understood when you thought in their language, and their language was what they were offering.

Don't tell me you're too stupid to remember it?

>>why yes, i do live in a rich white neighborhood, how did you know?
I gave you an opportunity to defend your "argument" and instead you responded like a retard.

This is how I know you don't have an argument.

Yes, they were offering their non-linear language as a gift to humanity so we can help them in 3000 years with some bullshit. I say again, never is faster than light travel mentioned or even implied.

muh abotion is bad movie

Morphogenetic field theory

Sorry but if you think immigration and globalization are good things then you live a sheltered life in a tiny bubble.

I recall a few lines that laid out that FTL was only possible with their language. They got to earth, right? That implies FTL.

If you liked the movie I would recommend reading the story it was based on "The Story of Your Life" by Ted Chiang. Its better and more logical.

>not remotely like star trek
>there are no episodes about figuring out an alien language
>mfw

Left me terribly unaffected for its good-ish execution of a very good story.

>another non-argument
EXPLAIN WHY THEY ARE BAD THINGS, YOU FUCKING CUNT. THIS IS WHY THE REPUBLICAN PARTY IS IN A DEATH SPIRAL.
